Sunday Nap

So this year we have the early church (9:00) and so today we tried to bring back the Sunday afternoon family naps. We did nap but it was so not worth the effort. We havent had these for about a year and as soon Josh told the girls that they had to have a nap Callie started whinning. Is it just me or does whinning get more and more obnoxious as the kid gets older? Bailey seemed game at first but pretty soon she was telling us that taking a nap was "Ignoinin' Me." Which we all laughed at the first couple of times. So we tried playing the quiet game and she said ready, set, go and about 2 secs later said "lets play the loud game." We tried to play log too, but that of course didnt work. Then Josh told the girls that we could go to Grandmas if they took a little nap. They both got quiet, but after a min. Bailey says "lets just stay home." What finally got her was when we said that if she didnt sleep then she couldnt have any treats and we bought Oreos and she could have some when she wakes up. She def. wanted the "Aireos", so she laid down and she was the first one asleep. So after about 2 hours from when we first laid down, Bailey had had a good nap, I had a crappy 20 mins or so on the foot of bed I was laying on, who knows if Callie slept or not, but Josh did get a nap because he stayed asleep when I got up with the girls. Yeah,so not worth it! I guess our days of both of us getting to nap on sundays are over.

Oh my goodness, there is nothing like a good nap on a sunday afternoon. Sounds so good, but it is so annoying when you try to take a nap and it doesn't work out :(

no they are not just wait a little bit - oh wait your about to have another kid never mind- i was going to say that callie is about as responsible as claira and that she could be "in charge" and just come rat on bay if she does anything bad but once baby gets here that is all out the window cause callie can not take care of the baby too - so sorry charlie looks like you are SOL - nice going josh men never get up with the kids why is it that they can sleep though anything while the woman gets up to take can of everything??? huh huh josh tell me tell me !!!!

OH, someone should have let the little pregnant momma take a nap! It's a lot of work carring that around all the time and she will soon be the one to get up in the middle of the night to nurse the baby.
Well, maybe you could take turns napping instead of everyone trying to nap at the same time. Or better yet, the lady gets one nap for every sports game watched. That sounds more than fair!
